Cosmetic Acupuncture

What do Madonna, Cher & Gwyneth Paltrow all have in common?  Besides big celebrity status they’ve all used cosmetic acupuncture to help maintain a healthy, youthful appearance.  Sometimes referred to as an acupuncture facelift, or facial rejuvenation,  the art of acupuncture for the sake of beauty has a long and distinguished history in China.  Dating back to the Sung Dynasty (960AD-1270AD) it was originally employed by the concubines of the Emperor to maintain their beauty.  Today it is used by many as a viable alternative to the countless age defying products and procedures available.

Designed on the principles of healing, cosmetic acupuncture works to not only benefit one’s outward appearance, but helps treat the underlying factors that contribute to the aging process.  Common results include an increase in collagen production and the elimination of fine lines.  Bags under the eyes can be reduced, jowls firmed, puffiness decreased, droopy eyelids lifted and double chins minimized.  Special attention is paid to restore the natural balance of health in the body. Thus the individual is left not only looking good but feeling good as well.

Most people notice that their skin becomes tighter and their complexion brighter after the first appointment. However treatments are usually administered in a series consisting of 10-12 sessions, with lasting results most noticeable after the seventh session.  Although not as dramatic as a surgical facelift, cosmetic acupuncture is a painless & non-invasive way to revitalize not only the face but the entire body.
